IMO, Nintendo has always been a bit behind on hardware, and most of their draw is the exclusive titles. I have both a switch and a steamdeck, and if a game is offered on both, I'll buy the PC/Steam version. The deck is larger, but actually fits quite well in my large hands, and I'm quite impressed of the amount of games that run well on it. It's not a replacement for a true gaming PC, but it's access to the existing steam library (and other PC games if you are clever) makes it quite an offering. The devices have majorly different target markets, which makes it hard to compare them.

It's not just your opinion, it's a Nintendo design philosophy:) https://nevalalee.wordpress.com/2014/01/09/withered-hardware-lateral-thinking/ https://nevalalee.wordpress.com/2014/01/09/withered-hardware... Though that said the N64 was supposedly a lot more advanced than the ps1, though I think that is debatable. Also the snes feels more advanced than the megadrive to me (genesis in America) Makes me want to dig out my gameboy color...

  Thanks for the link, i like that philosophy, Sony/Microsoft got a lot to learn, i stopped being interested with consoles right at the PS3 gen, the race for photo realism in gaming made me loose interest Indies are the ones who saved PC gaming for me

  > it's a Nintendo design philosophy:) if only that philosophy delivered hardware that was not so prone to failure. I have owned my switch for 2 1/2 years and it is on its third set of controllers and now the screen is registering phantom taps.
